    You have a beautiful back garden. Is that a weeping willow back on the left?

        It is! It's a whopper, which is lovely as it gives us a beautiful green dome which we can use as respite on hot days!

          Here is a ground level shot of the beast of a willow tree. We've had it checked by a lovely tree doctor (we four year old was most confused as to why he didn't have a stethoscope) and it is in brilliant condition. So pleased!

            Hi Gem

            :sign0016:

            Welcome to Gardeners Corner. Your garden looks beautiful. Glad to see you haven't just dug everything up to start again like most people do. You never know what treasures are hidden away waiting to show themselves.

              @Gem That Willow is really very nice. Glad you had it checked out be a "lovely tree doctor". Now you only need to watch for little bore holes in the bark. At first sign of little bore holes on other trees in your area, call your "lovely tree doctor" for some help. It is caused mainly by long-horned beetles and larvae. Anything containing chlorpyrifos every 10 weeks will prevent the little bad boy from infecting your "beast of a willow tree".
